No Precedent for This President – OPEN THREAD

It’s funny and ironic that our group knew from the start that Barack Obama didn’t have the depth and gravitas for the presidency, and now all of a sudden, the mainstream media is catching on. Now he’s at that tipping point where it seems totally unlikely he will win a second term. I don’t think there are many knowledgeable political observers who expect him to win. It all seems to be coming to a head very quickly. Here today, gone tomorrow.

Assuming Obama has little chance of winning re-election, I think the main question is whether he will step aside, either voluntarily or by order of his handlers. And if this happens, will it occur in time for another Democratic candidate to get organized and positioned for a serious run? Is it already too late? Probably.

As disinterested as he is in the affairs of state, I find it astonishing that Obama even WANTS to go for a second term. It seems to me he is only in it for the prestige and occasional adulation, but he’s going to find himself with neither very soon, the way it’s going.

I find it interesting, in fact I find it confusing, that we always want to compare what’s happening in current events to historical precedents. For example, we keep hearing speculation about Obama “doing an LBJ” because President Johnson was the last president to change his mind about re-election and take himself out of the race. Precedent aside, Johnson was getting old and tired, and retirement was appropriate for his age and length of service in politics. Obama is still relatively young and there’s really nowhere for him to go except on speaking tours.

Here’s another comparison to history that’s not working out: the primaries and convention. It’s been quite awhile since the candidate was decided at the convention by multiple ballots. States are competing for having their primary elections as early in the year as possible. We don’t seem to have the patience for indecision. We want our candidates chosen ASAP, then we complain all year about how long the process has become.

With the candidates selected by March or earlier, that puts us smack dab up against it already. We should know in about four or five months who the nominee will be for the Republicans, and if Obama is to step aside, it will have to happen pretty soon for a replacement to have a chance.

Of course, it’s highly unlikely he will step aside, even with his approval ratings at historic lows, about 36% approval at this writing. Narcissism always trumps common sense. And Obama doesn’t have enough sense, as my grandpappy always used to say sometimes, to pound sand in a rat hole.

Chris Matthews: GOP Congress ActingLike Government About to

Senate reaches deal
to avert government shutdown

The Hill
[Washington, DC],
by Peter Schroeder
9/26/2011

Senate leaders struck a late deal Monday night intended to
avert a government shutdown. Under a last-minute arrange-
ment reached by the two parties, the Senate agreed to pass a measure that would fund the government for six weeks, through Nov. 18. The Senate also was set to approve a one-week stopgap measure that would fund the government through Oct. 4. The
House also would have to approve that stopgap measure by
unanimous consent later this week in a pro forma session.

Sarah Palin’s family attorney John Tiemessen has written a letter to Maya Mavjee, the publisher of the Crown Publishing Group, a
division of Random House, that Palin may sue her, the company, and the book’s author Joe McGinniss

“for knowingly publishing false statements”

in his book released last week, “The Rogue,” ABC News has learned. The book was widely panned by critics for using unnamed sources to criticize Palin and her family.

Tiemessen cites an email they have access to in which McGinniss writes that attorneys from Crown Publishing told him…..

Sarah is even smarter than I thought. First by threatening to sue, she garners interest in the book. More books are purchased. The more books sold the greater the damage and hence the damges to which she’s entitled. If a jury awards her 10x in damages on a book selling for $25, (more likely she’ll get closer to 4x or maybe 5x the damages) then she gets $250 per book sold. A million copies equals $250Million. Even at only 4x in damages she’ll make a cool $100Million. You go Sarah. Imagine have a $100Million on which to spend to hound McGinnis for the rest of his miserable life. Gotta love it. And the precedent will be established that some conservatives actually do fight back. I think I’ll go buy that book just because every dollar invested returns 4 to 10 dollars in returns. America! What a wonderful country.

For the first time in my llife I’m actually proud of America’s trial lawyers.

Who Says HermanCain Is Unelectable?

Investor’s Business Daily, by Staff

9/26/2011

2012 Election: The various attempts to explain away
Herman Cain’s victory in the weekend’s Florida straw poll all stem from the same
underlying assumption: The guy is unelectable. Really? Based on what? One
political blogger summed up the general reaction to the Florida vote best:
“Rather than a legitimate outpouring of support for Cain, or a specific
rejection of Rick Perry, this victory represents a resounding cry of ‘who else
ya got?'” The implicit message is that voters couldn’t have been legitimately
backing Cain, since he has no chance of getting the nomination, much less the
presidency.

A few points about the African American voting base.
– Warning sweeping generalizations.

In general black Americans who can vote will not vote for the Republican party. There is an unfortunate myth that is pervasive that the republicans party is the party of slavery. Time and time again I have heard this from otherwise intelligent seeming persons of color.

Herman Cain has a fantastic personal story that is far superior to Obama’s and there is an actual verifiable record (as well as birth certificate). But moreover Herman Cain has a unique trump card in terms of people of color. Herman Cain has single handily done more to advance people of color by providing job opportunities and business ownership than any other candidate. If Cain plays that trump card in the black community he will pull over a handful of voters from the Democratic ranks, but at the same time he will decimate Obama’s minority turnout. The reason is very simple, while Democratic people of color will nto vote fro a republic in general, even is a person of color they will not vote against one who has done so much for what they see as their community.

It is one thing to go around like Robin Hood giving Section 8 housing, Link cards and other forms of public assistance and another to give people a job they know they can perform and successful at leading to a potential ownership opportunities. It is easy for a person growing up under what is considered disadvantaged circumstances to see themselves landing ajob delivering pizzas, moving into the kitchen, up to supervisor, then manager and then finally saving there way to an ownership opportunity. That plays very, very well in the lower economic minority community where Obama has his base.

Cain can decimate that base by keeping them at home. The coattails could be tremendous. If the GOP is not really looking at Cain now they are nuts.

Andrew Malcolm’s immigrant parents repeatedly stressed the importance of active participation in a democracy. Early lessons included learning the alphabetical list of states by watching televised roll calls of national political conventions. That childhood exposure led to a lifelong fascination with politics, including 40-plus years of covering them and a brief stint practicing them as press secretary to Laura Bush in 1999-2000.

My response to President Obama’s comments at the CBC dinner…
by Congressman Allen West

President Obama’s comments at the CBC dinner Saturday evening telling the black community to “stop complaining” were disrespectful and reprehensible. With unemployment in the black community at 16.7 percent, food stamp enrollment up, and our national poverty rate at epic proportion, the people have a constitutional right to redress their grievances to the government. If President Obama believes he is above criticism and reproach for his failed economic policies, then he should either change his policies or step down. Regardless, as a Member of the Congressional Black Caucus, I admonish President Barack Hussein Obama to apologize to America for his callous remarks.

Anonymous

You just can’t Obama anywhere . . . . .

I heard far left black pundits upset with how Obama talked down to these people. First, his audience were people who have had real careers and real jobs. Second, his audience were primarily people who grew up in underprivileged circumstances – some who risked their lives during the civil rights era – while Obama grew up in relatively privilged circumstances and not in ghettos or inner city projects. And third, these people represent a group who have extraordinary unemployment and it is Obama who needs to take off his flip-flops get on his suit and tie and go to friggin’ work.

Narcissism always trumps common sense. And Obama doesn’t have enough
sense, as my grandpappy always used to say sometimes, to pound sand in a
rat hole.

backtrack is great at pontification and lecturing people but not too great at doing anything useful

Obama says debt crisis in Europe is ‘scaring the world,’ European leaders are dealing with issue but not as quickly as needed – @Reuters

Good Morning America’s John Hendren on Sunday dismissed the victory of Herman Cain in the Florida straw poll, condescendingly
asserting that the ”big winner is nobody”. The ABC reporter made sure to repeatedly mention the business of the Republican presidential candidate:

”That’s right. The man who brought you Godfather’s Pizza at 37 percent”.

Hendren arrogantly explained, ..What’s notable about the Florida straw poll is less who won than who lost…The week’s big winner in the Republican primary is nobody”. It’s odd for ABC to dismiss the straw poll’s actual winner as a
”nobody”.

Mathematician for the Navy, where he worked on missile ballistics (making him a rocket scientist).

Computer systems analyst for Coca-Cola.

VP of Corporate Data Systems and Services for Pillsbury (this is the top of the ladder in the computer world, being in charge of information systems for a major corporation).

All achieved before reaching the age of 35.

Since he reached the top of the information systems world, he changed careers!

Business Manager.

Took charge of Pillsbury’s 400 Burger King restaurants in the Philadelphia area, which were the company’s poorest performers in the country. Spent the first nine months learning the business from the ground up, cooking hamburger and yes, cleaning toilets. After three years he had turned them into the company’s best performers.

Godfather’s Pizza CEO. Was asked by Pillsbury to take charge of their Godfather’s Pizza chain (which was on the verge of bankruptcy). He made it profitable in 14 months.

In 1988 he led a buyout of the Godfather’s Pizza chain from Pillsbury. He was now the owner of a restaurant chain. Again he reached the top of the ladder of another industry.

He was also chairman of the National Restaurant Association during this time. This is a group that interacts with government on behalf of the restaurant industry, and it gave him political experience from the non-politician side. Having reached the top of a second industry, he changed careers again!

Adviser to the Federal Reserve System.

Herman Cain went to work for the Federal Reserve Banking System advising them on how monetary policy changes would affect American businesses.

Chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank. He worked his way up to the chairmanship of a regional Federal Reserve bank. This is only one step below the chairmanship of the entire Federal Reserve System (the top banking position in the country).

This position allowed him to see how monetary policy is made from the inside, and understand the political forces that impact the monetary system. After reaching the top of the banking industry, he changed careers for a fourth time!

Writer and public speaker.

He then started to write and speak on leadership. His books include Speak as a Leader, CEO of Self, Leadership is Common Sense, and They Think You’re Stupid.

Radio Host.

Around 2007—after a remarkable 40 year career—he started hosting a radio show on WSB in Atlanta (the largest talk radio station in the country).

He did all this starting from rock bottom (his father was a chauffeur and his mother was a maid).

When you add up his accomplishments in his life—including reaching the top of three unrelated industries:

information systems,
business management, and
banking

—Herman Cain may have the most impressive resume of anyone that has run for the presidency in the last half century

Americans Express
Historic Negativity
Toward U.S. Government

Gallup,
by Lydia Saad
9/26/2011
PRINCETON, NJ

— A record-high 81% of Americans are dissatisfied with the way the country is being governed, adding to negativity that has been building over the past 10 years. Majorities of Democrats (65%) and Republicans (92%) are dissatisfied with the nation’s governance. This perhaps reflects the shared political power arrangement in the nation’s capital, with Democrats controlling
the White House and U.S. Senate, and Republicans controlling
the House of Representatives. Partisans on both sides can thus find fault with government without necessarily blaming their own party.

There has been a crowded field of suffering created
by the Great Recession, in which $14.5 trillion of American wealth vanished.
Baby Boomers have lost retirement funds, while Generation X–ers have lost out on
some peak earning years. The biggest losers, though, have been the Millennials.
According to the 2010 census data released last week, many of them have
literally lost their future. The media have taken to describing the 18- to
29-year-olds who will ultimately bear the brunt of the economic downturn as the
“Lost Generation.”

I was reading the news over the weekend about Herman
Cain’s winning the straw poll. And I thought, “The Left has
been telling you all your life that the Republican party is racist. The Left has been telling you all your life that conservatives are racist. The Left has been telling you for the last two and a half years that the Tea Party is racist.” Cain is, of course, a
Tea Party favorite. This blogpost from Kate Trinko shows a picture of Cain signing a “Don’t Tread on Me” flag for a man dressed in Tea Party garb…..

Whenever a White House makes it easy to photograph a
president doing something, the first question is always, “Why this?” Most of the
scores of times President Obama has gone golfing with aides and pals, the media
pool is kept waiting out of camera range in a food court. Some silly people have
suggested that instead of staying secluded with well-paid staff who already like
him, the aloof Obama could put such recreational buddy-buddy time to good
political use by issuing prestigious presidential invites to a variety of people
to come along and get to know each other better.

I would like some legal opinion on this story. I find it very weird. Insulting politicians used to be a national pastime. Since backtrack things have changed and not for the better on free speech.

helenk– Although I have not done any recent research on the question, Papish v. Board of Curators of the University of Missouri (1973, U.S. Supreme Court) held that a state university cannot regulate the content of speech even though it can regulate the place and time. In that case, a student newspaper (unofficial) published articles about political topics that had profanity in them, similar to the writings on the wall at Sam Houston State. According to the Court, those writings are protected by the First Amendment. So, the professor and the police were wrong.

HELENK

thank you.
All my life I was taught that in this country you have the right to speak out against a politician
When I read this believe it or not it scared me.
It seems that slowly we are losing our right to speak out. Many use the excuse of race to stifle speech about backtrack, but it is still stiffing speech and not the American I believe in.

I know of no Tea Party platform that wants to cut Social Security. It’s the Dems who want to gut Social Security and already made cuts in Medicare to fund (sh** I forget what they’re funding with it)…anyhow. Republicans don’t hate clean air, are you kidding? But to force extreme regulatory control for no other reason than to control from cradle to grave is the Dem agenda. It’s the Dems regulations that are job-cutting. (Both parties are guilty of the Free, not fair, Trade debacle.) Face it, they want to tear down America so they can rebuild her to their specifications — and that’s not according to the US Constitution. As for the wealthy backers? Give me a break. Check out Obama’s backers, beginning with Soros, Buffett, GE, Goldman Sacs, etc.
When Carville sent me the requesting begging for a donation against the Tea Party, he’s making the assumption that he can do my thinking for me.

The so-called Southern “black” accent is one that originated with the poor Southern whites….it’s actually a Southern poor white accent, as I’m sure you know…….the African blacks learned it from them.
If you spent time over the years, listening to poor Southern whites, like some of my kin——-you could close your eyes and swear they were black. “Wif” for “with”, “Dat’ and “dis”, etc.
Even my daddy, (when I was little and before we moved to Houston and became part of their “dignified” culture) would occasionally slip into his Louisiana talk and ask people, “Hows yo’ Mama and dem?'”
